Longueur Airtimes
This one is fairly decent but a little less than I expected. I heard about the new tracking and it isn't as rough as the old reviews were calling it but it also didn't completely fix all the issues. The ride feels like it lasts a long time so I have to give it a pro for duration. But when I look at it I thought the airtime was going to be strong but it was pretty weak throughout the entire layout. It's possibly because I was the only one on the entire train so it was missing that extra weight to fly through the course and gain speed. It's probably a decent fit for people who want to jump into a more intense coaster past the family level and I think it checks that box. 3/5 stars

Vitesse Fluidité Trop court
I got a chance to ride a brand new wood coaster with green lumber and it was super smooth and fun. The ride itself is a small family wood coaster. The park did a wonderful job integrating the landscaping including a wonderful water cascade and gardens around the ride. The queue is located in the center of the lift hill and first drop giving a wonderful view while waiting. There’s a great visual scare head-chopper moment after the first drop and then you’re sort of racing through bunny hops and curves. There’s not much intensity but it’s a lot of fun and can be re-ridden with no fear of pain. The restraints and trains are very comfortable too. Big kudos to Great Escape for building a new wooden coaster at this park.

I’ve ridden too many of these boomerangs by now but this one was not bad and almost made me want to re-ride it. It’s a fairly standard version of the ride with the old horse collar restraints but it didn’t hurt my head like usual, just made me dizzy.

Steaming Demon is another older Arrow coaster originally built in 1978 and then moved to Great Escape in 1984. I’m usually a huge fan of Arrow Custom Looping Coasters (CLCs) and so I saved it and rode it as my 250th credit. Unfortunately it was as rough as any Arrow coaster and gave me a pretty bad snap in my neck entering the corkscrew.

This ride originally from 1972 and refurbished and moved to SFGE in 2003 is an interesting piece of history and is still pretty fun and smooth all things considered. Most Arrow mine trains are pretty rough at this point but this didn’t seem too rough and had a fun first section after a quick lift hill and then a second larger lift hill with a dramatic triple helix finish. It’s a great introduction for kids and it’s great that the park was able to save it from the scrap heap and keep it going.

Airtimes Longueur
Comet isn’t the most intense coaster but I found it to be the most interesting ride at Great Escape with its old school steel structure and airtime hills. It’s a bit rough on my back on the low point of each drop so I just brace myself but it’s fairly minor for a wooden coaster. I noticed the lift hill had fresh lumber so I’m giving props to the park for maintaining this well.

Théma Trop court
To be fair, this is a kiddie coaster after all. Wasn't expecting this to have some airtime. You know what they say, a cred's a cred.(glad to have finally been on every coaster at my home park)

Airtimes First Drop Théma Vibrations
Fun overall ride but not as long or as fast as the other woodies in the park. The first drop is great and there are some decent hills. I also enjoy the view of the lake and speeding through the woods. The rattle is okay but there is currently a decently bad pothole toward the end. It's not a super long coaster either.

Airtimes First Drop Vitesse
This thing never stops, the first drop is great and leads into great airtime (there are even more later) I also love the lateral/sideways turns that keep the coaster just going. Even when you completely stop at the breaks you still fly through the rest. The rattle is very tolerable and doesn't seem to take away from any of the coaster.

First Drop Launch Fluidité Trop court
I am a sucker for launches, and especially ones that don't cause the coaster to go down. But that immelmann loop is soooo good and the near misses are so fun. the zero g roll and barrel roll are also a plus. Definitely a shorter coaster but that doesn't take much away from it. Overall very fun and has cool sound.
